The Hidden Treasure OF An Indian Tribe
Revealed.

Revealed.
Fort Worth, Tex, Telegram: sun
day morning two men drove up TO the
residence Of William Tubbs, ilyiDg
four miles north of Crawford, ana
asked Mr.. TuDbs If that was the Bibbs
place. Being Answered in the affirm
alive, they wished 10 see the man Of
III. house, to whom they made the
following disclosure: In 1855 an In
dian woman, fearlUg that she would
be plundered by Yankee raiders,
buried an ircn vessel containing 81 900
in gold under a corner of the house Oc-
cupied by William Tubbs. Upon
moving away she concluded IL was
safely bid where.it WAS, and she com.
forted herself that nobody would ever
flnd il, and that she could reclaim il
when she wanted it. Upon her death
bed thort time ago she revealed
these facts to the two men just spoken
of, and in return for kindnesses shown
her by these parties she bequeathed TO
them the aforesaid buried treasure.
Requesting Mr.. Tubbs' permission
to dig under his house they all pro-
ceeded to dig at the spo: indicated by
the Indian woman. The iron pot was
unearthed, and in the vessel was found
\ canvas sack containing large
amount Of gold coiu-exactly how
much Mr.. Tubbs Is unable to state
IL 900 or 81 500. These men unearth.
ed in Bosque county $1,000.
After the above fact had become
generally known Capt. Bowley, who
lives near Mr.. Tubbs, said on last
Monday afternoon. while plowing in
field near his house. he perceived in
the dirt adhering to the plow shin.
ing substance. Upon investigation il
proved to be a $50 gold piece. He
plowed on and found more gold pieces
upturned. and he became 30 aroused
on the subject that he called his hired
help, Mr.. ID. Carpenter, from another
part of the field. BY nightfall they
had picked up 2s2 $50 gold pieces
which amounts to s., $40.
This startling discovery has set that
county sfire and every fellow that
owns as much ~ ten acres Of ground
has gone to digging for gold. slack
Henson, who was in town Monday,
says he found SIS In confederate
money in an old stump on bis piece
OF real estate. The next day he was
offered 800 an acre for his place, but
he refused 10 sell. In $40 the Ton.
